In this mini episode of The Midlife Reinvention Podcast, you’ll discover why your midlife body isn’t betraying you - it’s simply sending you signals.

Inspired by my recent conversation with Dr. Heather Awad, a family physician and coach who helps women navigate menopause with science and compassion, this episode explores how to work with your changing body instead of fighting against it.

In this episode you will discover:

• The science behind menopause and metabolism - and why weight gain in midlife isn’t your fault
• The most effective type of exercise to rebuild strength and energy
• How giving your body time to rest between meals can reset your metabolism
• Why your mindset and self-talk matter just as much as what you eat

If you’ve been feeling frustrated, tired, or disconnected from your body, these three simple shifts can help you feel grounded, confident, and truly yourself again.

🎧 Tune in to understand what’s really happening inside your body - and how small, compassionate changes can make a big difference in how you feel every day.
